Chongwe River camp

Lower Zambezi, Zambia

On the Confluence

Chongwe River Camp is situated on the confluence of the Chongwe and Zambezi Rivers, directly opposite Zimbabwe’s Mana Pools. The Chongwe River is the boundary of the Lower Zambezi National Park. The camp itself looks onto the confluence of the Chongwe and Zambezi rivers and the mountains of the escarpment to the north.  The chalets are large, well-appointed Mulati tents under thatch, each with a luxury open-air bathroom.  Situated under a canopy of Albida thorns and surrounded by cool lawns, they command fabulous views over the Rivers.  The bathrooms are an experience on their own, open air with fittings made from natural materials found near the lodge.

There is so much to do at Chongwe River Camp. The game viewing is exceptional, and few other places can give you the...

Thank you for putting together the ancestral adventure of a lifetime. I cannot speak highly enough of the trip. The transfers went smoothly, the accommodation was excellent, the drivers were amazing as they manoeuvred through the traffic and every tour guide had a great deal of knowledge and information. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The contrast of poverty and riches of the country was striking, from the beggars in the street and struggles of the poor to the spectacular, impressive sights of the forts and monuments. There were so many highlights. A moment in time that will never happen again.
